Progranulin is a growth factor involved in the regulation of multiple processes including tumorigenesis, wound repair, development, and inflammation. The recent discovery that mutations in the gene encoding for progranulin (GRN) cause frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), and other neurodegenerative diseases leading to dementia, has brought renewed interest in progranulin and its functions ...
Loss-of-function mutations in progranulin (GRN) are one of the most common genetic causes of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disorder with no available disease-modifying treatments. Through haploinsufficiency, these mutations reduce levels of progranulin, a protein that has neurotrophic and anti-inflammatory effects. Increasing progranulin expression from t...
A central challenge of developmental and evolutionary biology is to understand how anatomy is encoded in the genome. Elucidating the genetic mechanisms that control the development of specific anatomical features will require the analysis of model morphogenetic processes and an integration of biological information at genomic, cellular and tissue levels. The formation of the endoskeleton of the...
The well-known regulative properties of the sea urchin embryo, coupled with the recent elucidation of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) that underlie cell specification, make this a valuable experimental model for analyzing developmental plasticity. In the sea urchin, the primary mesenchyme cell (PMC) GRN controls the development of the embryonic skeleton. Remarkably, experimental manipulations r...
understanding the genetic regulatory networks, the discovery of interactions between genes, and understanding regulatory processes in a cell at the gene level, is one of the major goals of system biology and computational biology. modeling gene regulatory networks, describing the actions of the cells at the molecular level and is used in medicine and molecular biology applications such as metab...
This work concerns a biologically-inspired approach to self-assembly and pattern formation in multi-robot systems. In previous work the authors have recently studied two different approaches to multi-robot control, one based upon the evolution of controllers modelled as genetic regulatory networks (GRNs), and the other based upon a model of self-organisation in aggregates of biological cells me...
Intra-population heterogeneity is commonly observed in natural and cellular populations and has profound influence on their evolution. For example, intra-tumor heterogeneity is prevalent in most tumor types and can result in the failure of tumor therapy. However, the evolutionary process of heterogeneity remains poorly characterized at both genotypic and phenotypic level. Here we study the evol...
Explanation of a process of development must ultimately be couched in the terms of the genomic regulatory code. Specification of an embryonic cell lineage is driven by a network of interactions among genes encoding transcription factors. Here, we present the gene regulatory network (GRN) that directs the specification of the skeletogenic micromere lineage of the sea urchin embryo. The GRN now i...
MOTIVATION A rapid progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) causes a high mortality rate because of the propensity for metastasis driven by genetic and epigenetic alterations. The identification of prognostic biomarkers would help prevent or control metastatic progression. Expression analyses have been used to find such markers, but do not always validate in separate cohorts. Ep...
Objective To quantify the effect of genetic factors and generations influencing the age at onset (AAO) in families with frontotemporal lobar dementia (FTD) due to C9ORF72 hexanucleotide repeat expansions and GRN mutations. Methods We studied 504 affected individuals from 133 families with C9ORF72 repeat expansions and 90 FTD families with mutations in GRN, 2 major genes responsible for FTD an...
